A while back I started working on these beauties

Here's a pic showing the fit on my normal, human-sized head:

You can see more of my progress photos in this flickr album: Range Trooper Helmet

The chin and nose greeblies are cast separately:

I'm offering raw cast kits at $210 plus shipping. A non-refundable deposit of $110 gets you on the list. The remaining $100 plus shipping will be due once the kit is boxed up and ready to ship.

Post here if you'd like to get one of these kits.

Sounds good. I still need to finish polishing up the greebly add-ons, so you've got some time.

Mothermold is done:

The first cast came out great. Here it is next to the prototype:

I couldn't resist the urge to trim out the eye hole and try it on with the visor in place:

This baby is going to look great with some weathering:

Now I just need to finish prototyping the chin greeblies so I can mold them and I'll be ready to ship out some kits:

In any case, these will be under rubber before I leave the shop tonight.

Just a heads up, I got these lenses from the Von Zipper website for half price! They didn't even charge me for shipping.

Can't wait to see the bucket when it arrives!
